    Belgium v Wales WCQ

    I can't decide what I hate more. VAR or fucking awful goal music.

    Belgium v Wales WCQ

    VAR's a fucking joke. Football's lessened because of it.

    Wright

    When he is good, he is very, very good at this level. When he is bad he goes into his shell , loses fight and is a passenger. Both of the above are true. The question is whether you think the benefit of the first statement outweighs the detriment to the team of the second. I don't want him...

    Finding god was after that. It was after Laurie Cunningham died, and did spark an up-turn in form (though not to the same degree as following his first season). I definitely remember chants of 'Hallelujah, Cyrille Regis, Cyrille Regis!', and, 'And now you're going to believe us, Cyrille's born...

    They must be falling over laughing. He's decent, but that's a crazy sum.

    The one who once threw David Speedie into the crowd at Roker Park. 😂

    I say this only for the purposes of factuality, because I have no issue with you, but it's not compulsory to respond to notifications.

    Item 25/26 Coventry Kit

    Internazionale's one of the classic kits of world football. Don't fuck with it. Their kit season just gone was awful, but That's not an Inter kit at all.

    On the instructions of someone, though. And fair enough; you know your club's history better than we do. Yeah, no firm specification. Which means you get the scope for more creativity, but less of a set identity. I guess it's subjective which of those is preferable.

    Your badge has had several changes in my time supporting football. Many clubs' have, to be fair. ETA:: I quite liked the ship badge; it's the one I associate with Sunderland the most (perhaps bev=cause it was the one they used when I got into football). Your nickname was decided seemingly by...

    Wasn't that what people said when Clarke left them? All clubs that aren't Real Madrid and their ilk are selling clubs, it's how you reinvest.

    Viktor Moving on

    Of course not, but they can't say no to the release clause, either. It'd be like asking how much a Snickers bar cost, being told £1, and then saying, 'cool, cheers, here's £1.50'. Apart from there's only one Snickers, and lots of people are trying to persuade it why they are the best person to...

    Viktor Moving on

    Exactly. If it's a release clause, they have to accept, so offering more would be lunacy. It would be personal terms there would be a bidding war on.

    Collar's wired. It looks like it's trying to be two things at once. Otherwise, top effort (though a design synonymous with another club).

    How much for our strikers ?

    BTA wasn't a terrible signing at all. Decent option as a rotation striker, and for a forward with the experience that he has, relatively cheap. I don't think there should be any clamour to get rid, although he probably wants to move for more playing time himself.

    Too many games, apparently.

    Retained List

    I agree, but at this stage in his career, is he going to settle for that? He could be a regular for a decent Championship team.

    Retained List

    Way before then in fairness. World Cups in Italy in 1938 and Argentina in 1978 are just the immediately obvious ones. Football administrators generally never had much of a social conscience. It's just so blatant now, though. Infantino will crawl up the arse of every autocrat he meets.

    Yeah, sorry, edited post; realised after posting you weren't passing comment on your own thoughts, rather speaking more generally.
